Slot Praises Liverpool's Resilience Amidst Salah Drama
10 Dec
Summary
- Liverpool secured a European win against Inter Milan.
- Mohamed Salah's absence did not deter the team's performance.
- Arne Slot commended his players' effort despite limited squad depth.
Liverpool secured a crucial European victory over Inter Milan at the San Siro, ending the Italian side's impressive three-year unbeaten streak in European home fixtures. Head coach Arne Slot lauded his players for giving "all I could ask for," especially considering the challenges posed by Mohamed Salah's recent absence and a depleted squad of only 14 experienced outfield players.
Despite a controversial late penalty decision by the referee, which Slot suggested might not have been given in the Premier League, the team displayed a commendable mentality. They limited Inter's chances and showed great spirit, coming close to scoring through Conor Bradley and Hugo Ekitiké before the decisive spot-kick.
Slot emphasized that the focus should remain on the players present and their performance, deflecting questions about Salah's controversial interview. He highlighted the midfield and individual contributions as key to this significant away win, celebrating a night that added to Liverpool's rich European history.
